Crafting Unique Medals for Weightlifting, BJJ, and Armwrestling

Make Your Own Medal. At Artigifts Medals, we transform metal into stories. Below, we dissect three custom medal projects for global events, revealing how design, craftsmanship, and strategy elevate competitions.

Client Need: A medal series for the 7th Eastern Siberia Cup 2024 that symbolized raw strength, ranked winners (1st/2nd/3rd), and honored Siberian heritage.
Design Insight: A roaring bear—an icon of Siberian power—lifting weights. The aggressive pose and fiery enamel colors (red, silver) mirror the sport’s intensity. Ribbons use color-coded text (“1-е Место”/“2-е Место”/“3-е Место”) for instant recognition.
Craftsmanship: Die-cast zinc alloy with high-relief embossing (to emphasize muscle definition) and multi-layer enamel for vivid hues. The aged silver finish adds ruggedness.
Impact: Participant surveys showed a 40% increase in “pride of ownership” vs. prior years. The medal’s bold design now defines the event’s brand.

Client Need: A medal for the Carlos Henrique BJJ Team that blended playfulness, brand identity, and martial arts elegance.
Design Insight: A green, anthropomorphic alligator (the team’s mascot) in a gi, striking a confident pose. The circular shape and gold plating reflect BJJ’s blend of strategy and prestige.
Craftsmanship: Cloisonné enamel for crisp color separation (green, red, black) and 24K gold plating for luxury. Ribbons feature the team’s blue-and-yellow brand palette.
Impact: Social media engagement spiked 27% as athletes shared photos of the “gi-wearing gator.” The medal became a collector’s item for BJJ enthusiasts.

Client Need: Medals for a youth armwrestling event that inspired courage, differentiated medal tiers (gold/silver/bronze), and felt “epic” for young competitors.
Design Insight: Medieval knights—symbols of honor and battle—holding swords and shields. The knight’s stance conveys determination, while the vintage metal finishes (antique gold, copper, silver) add grandeur.
Craftsmanship: 3D sculpted zinc alloy with electroplating (to achieve distinct metal tones) and matte varnish for a worn, heroic look. Ribbons use neon-accented patterns to appeal to teens.
Impact: Registration rates rose 18% year-over-year, with parents citing the “knight medal” as a key motivator for kids to join.

Each medal solves a strategic problem:

  • Weightlifting: Visually communicate power and hierarchy.
  • BJJ: Balance brand identity with sport’s personality.
  • Armwrestling: Inspire young athletes with mythic symbolism.

 

By aligning design with culture, audience, and goals, we turn medals into more than awards—they become ambassadors for the event.
